My papa used to tell me all the time, “Sam, you just remember one thing: Nothing good happens after midnight.”

JT Hodges would have to respectfully disagree with that.

Hodges’ driving new single “After Midnight” argues that the wee small hours after the clock strikes 12 are when the magic happens. The lust-for-life, anthemic song takes you back to simpler day with a kind of rock 'n’ roll romance.

“After Midnight” is the title track from Hodges’ new EP, which it out now.

The video boasts some cool effects, too.
